TO those who want to see how

at the yard of Monte Gwinn.
Where three months ago there was
not even suspicion of vegetation,
to-day there is as pretty q stand of
white clover as can be found any
where. Not only is this growth on
strong alkali ground, but what is
more remarkable, the seed was
sprouted by irrigation, it not hav-
ing the advantage of spring rains
to start it. Caldwell's alkali will

The democratic platform adopted at L

The democratic platform adopted at De-
troit-J. LOGAN CHIPMAN's platform-displays
unusual versatility. Instead of combining
the party to denouncing and arraigning SIM
ply, as has been customary i'll past years, the
platform reafiirms once, renews twice, de-
nounces once, demands twice. charges once
twice if the charge on the offices is counted
in-congratulateS once, recognizes once,
urges once and pledges once. This is great
improvement on democratic precedents and
manifests that the spirit of progress which
is abroad in the land has affected even the
old bourbon democracy. The time may
even yet come when democrats will no longer
vote for General JACKSON, but not in this
generation.

democratic party to reform the methods and
reduce the amount of taxation-pledges
which the democratic administration of
President CLEVELAND has nobly struggled to
fulfil against the partisan opposition OF a
republican senate" "Platforms of determi-
nation" is particularly good. The word Is
no doubt used in its secondary sense, to ter
inmate; all democratic platforms and pledges
terminate as soon as election il over. The
keen humor of the paragraph above quoted
is apparent at a glance. The pretense that
the democratic administration is engaged in
vigorous struggle with a republican senate
to "reform tho methods and reduce the
amount of taxation" is absolutely laughable,
when it is remembered that all revenue bills
must originate in the democratic house, and
that the democratic members of that body,
for the last two years, have been quarreling
over the tariff like q parcel IF Kilkenny
cats, and have been unsble to frame bill
that majority of the house. largely demo-
cratic as it is could agree upon. 1t is a
piece of sublime impudence on the part Of
the democracy of Michigan to charge the
shortcomings of its own party representa-
tives upon the republican senate.
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1887-03-09

II is very possible, perhaps probable, that
there will yet be some kind of truce patched
up between the late joint contracting parties
of Michigan by their respective bosses.
Whether such shall be the case or not is n
matter of indifference to republicans. They
felt very sure of their ability to defeat the
matter how unanimous and hearty might be
the fusion between them: but now, after so
much bad blood has been stirred up both in
the greenback tent and in the democratic
wigwam, it will be an easy task for the
republicans of Michigan to overthrow and
demo!ish any fiimsy, make-shift arrange
ment that may be evolved from the inner
consciousness of the bosses.
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1887-03-09

The most unkipdest cut of all, is the
way the Detroit Tree Press speaks of the
remains of the late fusion party of Michigan.
The following is its eulogy over the body of
the deceased: "The die is cast and fusion
WILL for the first time in several years, play
no part it the Michigan state campaign.
And it can hardly be necessary to say that
there will be thousands of democratic voters
who will most heartily rejoice thereat. And
even among those who would have preferred
to continue the fusion from motives of
policy, there will be. we believe. feeling of
pride in voting straight once more. in free
dom from all entangling alliances" 1t
sounds little strange to hear the venerable
Free Press speaks of fusion as All entan-
Cling alliance" II has not been won't TO
express itself in that way We had been led
to suppose that that journal looked upon
fusion as the very acme of political sagacity
and wisdom. All, well Perhaps we were
wrong. Possibly we have Inexperienced
its position. As fusion had had its day and
had helped the democratic party of Michigan
to all it was able to, it is, perhaps, just as
well that it is played out II has served
its purpose and soon none will be found so
poor az to do il reverence.

The senate retaliation bill passed both
houses of congress, the house finally receding
from its radical amendments and accepting
the bill just as it came from the senate.
Under the provisions of the bill, the presi-
dent may, in his discretion, exclude Canadian
fish and Canadian vessels from the United
States, but cannot proclaim actual non-inter-
course, as was provided by the house amend
ments. If Canada persists in her outrageous
persecution of American fishermen, il is to
be hoped that President CLEVELAND will
avail himself to the utmost of the discretion
airy power lodged in his hands by the pro-
visions of the bill.
